Bill hit the nail on the head. And like he said, I am not in favor of this. Just stating the facts.


I remember those days very well Barry. Back before Jimmy Carter put all of the farmer's out of business. The black belt produced some mighty fine bucks and soybeans.


Yes it did. I remember seeing 150-160 inch bucks on a regular basis (in the back of trucks). Is shot an 8 pt back in the fall of 1980 that topped out 250 lb scales. And that didn't even really surprise anyone down there. I was shocked. Those deer were well fed and they grew big. The same thing could happen up and down the black belt today if there was enough "real" farming.
